Dubai Airports is raising the bar for global aviation events, announcing an extraordinary Gala Dinner to cap off the Dubai Airshow 2025. Scheduled for November 20 at the iconic Atlantis The Palm, the invitation-only event promises to gather 3,300 VIP guests for a night of world-class entertainment, opulent dining, and innovative immersive experiences reflecting the airshow’s theme, “The Future Is Here”.
Headlining the evening will be chart-topping performers Teddy Swims, celebrated for his soul-stirring crossover hits like “Lose Control” and “The Door,” and Grammy-winning DJ and producer Mark Ronson, whose collaborations span global superstars Amy Winehouse, Bruno Mars, and Lady Gaga. Ronson will close out the festivities with an exclusive afterparty DJ set that’s set to be a highlight of the week.
The gala experience begins with a dynamic red carpet, transformed into an interactive landscape brimming with activations designed to create unforgettable moments. Guests will be officially welcomed by HH Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Airports. Inside, they’ll enjoy gourmet cuisine surrounded by cutting-edge multisensory installations, all crafted to celebrate the ideas, people, and partnerships driving the future of aviation.
Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports, describes the event as “a celebration of the human dimension behind aviation’s momentum—of the people, ideas, and partnerships that give meaning to everything we build.” Previous editions have featured legendary acts like Maroon 5, Katy Perry, and Jennifer Lopez, and this year’s event aims to surpass them all in ambition and energy.
Firmly established as the social showpiece of the Dubai Airshow and a standout on the international aviation calendar, the 2025 Gala Dinner exemplifies Dubai’s dynamic leadership and creativity in the global aviation sphere.
